Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Early on the next morning, Liu Yu got up from the warm Kang, quickly put on her clothes, and opened the door of the hall. She saw that the courtyard was completely white, and the jujube trees in the courtyard were covered with snow.

There is also a thick layer on the roof of the kitchen, and crystal ice hangs from the eaves. Looking outside, the earth is covered in silver, and everyone is wearing snow-white cotton clothes.

Liu Yu first took out a shovel from the woodshed and prepared to collect the snow in the yard. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for grandpa and grandma to walk out later. The thick snow would wet the shoes and socks, and it was hard to explain. Gotta wrestle too.

As soon as they picked up the two shovels, Liu Fusheng and Nian walked out of the house. Seeing Liu Yu shoveling the snow, they hurriedly shouted to stop.

"A big man like this still cares about the beginning rather than the end of his work. He should shovel the snow off the roof first and then gather it out together."

After Nian finished speaking, he ordered Liu Fusheng and Liu Yu to carry the ladder together.

"No, let me do it." Liu Yu quickly shoveled a path from the main room to the kitchen so that Nian could boil water for cooking later, and quickly carried a ladder over.

Nian was particularly worried when the ladder was positioned upright against the roof. She asked Liu Fusheng to help her hold the ladder up below to prevent Liu Yu from falling down.

Standing high, you can see far. When you are on the roof, the scenery you see is different from that on the ground. Not far away, the water of the Yue River has frozen. Cuifeng Mountain behind the house is covered with snow, and the green bamboo forest is full of snow. .

The wind blew, and some unbearable bamboo branches flicked suddenly, and white snow fell one after another. Usually, the paths in the village had been trampled by early risers, and from further away, the sounds of children chasing and laughing could be heard.

Occasionally, one or two curses from women and husbands could be heard in the distance, and smoke was rising from various houses in the village. Although they were covered by bamboo trees, they could not hide the morning fireworks.

The air she breathed into her lungs seemed to be filled with biting coldness, and Liu Yu let out a heavy breath.

At this moment, he was in a bright mood. He smiled and greeted He Sheng, who was climbing the ladder to the house next door. He squatted down and took the shovel handed over by Liu Fusheng, and began to walk carefully to the highest ridge.

After all the snow on the five roofs in front and behind had been shoveled, Liu Yu broke out in a thin sweat on a cold day, and the sun shone down, making the sky and the earth full of crystal clear and dazzling light.

"Come down and eat first, warm yourself up, and then do it after eating." Nian walked out of the kitchen, wiped her wet hands on the apron she was wearing, and greeted Liu Yu on the roof.

Liu Yu climbed down the ladder in twos and twos, and while moving the ladder, she said: "I will shovel the snow off the stove, and you can eat first."

"Then eat it later. Eat it after you finish it. It will save you the cold."

It's cold in winter, and the food is so cold. A bowl of hot soup is still warm after drinking. So they got up early today. There is nothing urgent to do in winter, so they don't care about this. For a moment.

There are only two kitchens, and the snow is cleared much faster than the house. It was all shoveled away in a short time. There are still some residues on the tiles, so don’t worry. As soon as the sun shines, it will drip from the tiles. .

While Liu Yu was shoveling the snow on the roof, Liu Fusheng also used a rake to remove the snow from the pig pen, and also cleaned up the top of the chicken coop.

After all the busy work, everyone's hands, hands and feet were warm, and their bodies were also warm.

Nian brought out the hot water from the house and put it on the basin stand, then asked several people to wash their hands and faces.

"Wash your face and put some lard on it to keep it from getting dry when the wind blows." Seeing Liu Yu and Changsheng wiping their faces, Nian hurriedly ordered. They will get married in a while, and many people in the village will come to have a banquet. But you can't greet guests with a bright face.

"Hey!"

Liu Yu quickly went to the table in the main room and opened a small white porcelain jar. She found this jar while packing away the porcelain. It was supposed to be used to store tea and other delicate things. Nian liked it and took it. Come and divide up the snow-white lard. In the past few days, my family members have washed their hands and faces, and they will scoop out a little bit to moisturize their skin.

Apply a little lard from it and apply it casually on your face, and your tense face will instantly relax.

Liu Yu wiped out a little more and walked quickly to Changsheng. Only then did she see that Changsheng was still holding a cane and had no free hands to use.

He quickly glanced around the courtyard and saw that the grandfather and grandma were both in the kitchen at the moment. His hand dipped in lard quickly reached out to Changsheng's face and spread it evenly in a few strokes.

Then he rubbed his hand hard on the back of Changsheng's hand, as if he had stolen a piece of sweet candy when the adult was not prepared, and felt quite happy in his heart.

He smiled at Changsheng and said, "Okay, let's go eat."

"Why are you face so red?"

Liu Yu was a little surprised. This man's face, which was as white as jade just now, was now crimson. He couldn't help but put his hand to his forehead and whispered in a low voice: "I don't have a fever! Why is it so red?"

Changsheng's face became even redder, he turned his head to avoid Liu Yu's hand, and said in embarrassment: "I didn't have a fever to begin with." After saying this, he walked towards the kitchen with a cane in a slightly embarrassed manner.

Seeing Chang Sheng's somewhat hurried back, with the tips of his ears even red at this moment, Liu Yu realized in hindsight that this man was shy just now.

One couldn't help laughing.

Changsheng walked faster and turned into the kitchen in a blink of an eye.

"You're crazy so early in the morning, why don't you come over here as the food gets colder?" Nian's angry curse followed.

"Just come."

...............

After breakfast, Liu Yu spent about two-quarters of an hour gathering all the snow in the yard outside the fence.

He also took a bamboo stick from the woodshed, said hello to his grandma and Changsheng, and then went to the village to find the three brothers Liu Fan.

The Liu family's old house is at the end of the village, and Liu Maolin's and Liu Maoye's houses are in the middle of the village. Although the two families don't have the same big house, they are quite close to each other.

Walking on the path in the village, half-grown boys were having snowball fights. You chased me and threw snowballs at each other, your cheeks were red from the cold but you were still having fun.

"Brother Ayu, what are you doing?" Li Peng saw Liu Yu at a glance and stopped to say hello. He still remembered the sweet chestnut shortcake Liu Yu gave him.

At this moment, he saw Liu Yu walking over and stood obediently to say hello.

"Brother Ayu, Changshou came home very late last night!"

Li Peng whispered to Liu Yu that he still remembered that Liu Yu had asked him to pay attention to Chang Xi Niang's movements, but he had forgotten about it during this period. The little fat man felt a little guilty. After speaking, he looked up at Liu Yu, thinking of the sweet cake. Cake, couldn't help but lick my mouth.

Longevity is back!

Liu Yu couldn't help but frown. He still remembered Xiuxiu's fear of Changshou, and the fact that Xiuxiu said that if Changshou approached the gambling house, he would break his legs.

After praising the little fat Li Peng and telling him not to be naughty on the river ice, Liu Yu frowned and walked to her uncle's house, completely unaware of Li Peng's eyes eagerly staring at the hem of his clothes.

Walking in the snow, I arrived at the uncle's house. Liu Maolin and the others had already eaten, and the snow on the roof and yard had been swept away. The uncle's mother was washing the pots, and Zhao Tianyu thought she was in the house, but saw no one.

The uncle looked at Luya and Brother Qi at the door of the courtyard. The two children were having fun poking at the pile of snow at the door.

"Why are you here now, but what's the matter with your grandparents?" Liu Maolin looked at Liu Yu with a slightly nervous expression, for fear that something might happen to his father and mother.

"I want to go to the mountain to trap rabbits and come to find the eldest brother and the second brother." Liu Yu explained the purpose of his visit.

When the two children saw Liu Yu, Brother Qi just returned the favor and said something unclear. Lu Ya smiled sweetly at Liu Yu: "Hello, little uncle."

"Hey!" Liu Yu lowered her head and touched Lu Ya's little tweet, feeling a little annoyed that she had forgotten to bring two pieces of candy when she came out.

"Next time, little uncle will bring you sweets to eat."

"Either you are biological brothers! Your second brother went to your third uncle's house to discuss with your eldest brother and third brother about catching rabbits in the mountains. I think he will be back soon. Come in and chat with me. It's cold outside. Come in quickly. , look at the shoes soaked."

Xu Hong wiped her hands and came out of the kitchen, inviting Liu Yu to rest in her room.

Liu Yu looked at a bamboo forest not far away, her heart moved, and she followed Xu Hong into the room.

After recounting some family affairs, Liu Yu asked, "Have you heard any news about Tian Fugui's family recently?"

"Yes, that girl has been having an affair with Brother Xian's mother recently. Their wedding is scheduled for the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month. This girl feels that her life is behind Brother Xian, so she bothers the matchmaker to go to Huang's house. She wants to Let’s move the date forward.”

"I don't know what to think. Could this date be changed casually? As soon as I thought about it, the matchmaker didn't want to go, so I just said that the matchmaker was thinking about their He family, which made Lian very angry with my mother."

Xu Hong babbled a lot, Lian Shengniang's husband was He Dayong's cousin, Shui Sanmei pulled He Dayong's family out like this, it was obvious that she wanted to suppress the He family.

"I heard that Changshou is back! But it's true." Liu Yu didn't really care about how Shui Sanmei and Renshi fought in the ring.
